They bore striking similarity to US involvement in staging the late 2013/early 2014 EuroMaidan uprising in Ukraine – replacing democratic governance with Nazi-infested putschist rule.

Sargsyan’s forced April 23 resignation was similar to democratically elected Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych’s ouster on February 22, 2014 – a triumph for Washington in both cases, a defeat for Russia, losing allies in both countries.

Analyst Andrew Korybko explained what he called a successful “Armenian Color Revolution,” saying:

“(H)yper-nationalist politician and small-time oligarch Nikol Pashinyan was able to pressure former President and now former Prime Minister Serzh Sargsyan to resign from his position despite the latter’s insistence just yesterday morning that ‘the political force, which garnered 7-8% in the election, has no right to talk on behalf of the people’ and ‘blackmail the state.’ “

On Monday, “democracy didn’t win in Armenia…dictatorship did – and the future of the country hasn’t looked bleaker in recent memory, though just like in the immediate aftermath of ‘EuroMaidan,’ the majority of people there haven’t realized it yet and some of them never will,” Korybko explained.
